Hey guys my dad just visited me and since I love working out brought me this weird thing saying that its great for exercising.
its basically an elastic rope,kinda thought it was a sex toy or something at first. Anyone knows what this is?

so he brought me some women's meme workout accessory
>what did he mean by this? :(
You use it to do like stretches and stuff. I used some for a while when I needed PT for my messed up back.

This. They come in different strengths. I used a few for PT after I broke my thumb and wrist

Looks like a resistance band without the handles
They're good at the end of a superset or dropset, helps you really burn the muscle till complete exhaustion and is as hard or as easy as you make it.
Do these biceps exercises (pic related)

>I used some for a while when I needed PT
I'm a different guy with a dad who likes resistance bands. That's how he got into them, he needed PT. They're good, but progressive overload tops out too soon to be useful as training gear.

Your stickman is cute, and I know what exercise your drawing is supposed to represent, but I feel like other people will mistake it for jumprope.
To clarify for others, you stand on the band and pull up with your hands. Kinda like curls, but instead you're pulling the rope thing up with your hands.

Bands are good for mobility exercises especially of the shoulders and back but that doesn't have any handles...He gave you old people garbage.
Might be all you really need

Make sure it doesn't slip or you'll punch yourself in the face. Saw some dude give himself a bloody nose cause the band snapped and he was looking down when his fist flew up into his nose.
He yelled out FUCK really loudly and then started laughing and walked out of the gym.
